This insert sits in asilver plate frame that is marked “CICINNATUS” “QUADRUPLE” QUEEN CY. SIL. CO.” andthere is also the number “1309”
The frame is verynicely decorated with highly detailed floral and geometric figures at the baseand on top of the handle. The 4 curved feet are also beautifully detailed. Thelid is also very nicely executed.
This REALLY NICE frame measures 13” tall andjust about 4 3/8” across the four feet. The plating looks to be virtually intactand like it could use a good polishing.
The tongs measure 6 5/8”long and the plating on both the tongs and the lid also looks to be intact.
CONDITION: The “scroll” decoration on the side of the handle opposite thetong’s hook appears to be reattached. Other than that, I do notsee anything that would owe an apology on this piece.
